Watch: The Refined Players

by the 1800® Team

In partnership with Billboard, 1800 Tequila® worked with New Orleanian trumpeter, composer and producer Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah to create the Refined Players series. This five-part digital documentary series showcases how five musical talents from all over the country were brought together to record a new, refined sound featuring hip-hop artist Vic Mensa.

The aim? To further break down the barrier between jazz and hip-hop whilst marrying cultures, techniques, styles, beats, rhythms, and personalities.

Watch as the artists are combined into one collective to record a newly refined track, culminating in an intimate live performance at the Preservation Hall in New Orleans.

Listen to the exclusive final track “Freedom is a Word” by Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah ft. Vic Mensa:
